Trump has to stop taking swings we know will miss, because it weakens the ones that might not. No grand jury was indicting her, whether you think it is because the case is weak or that the juries there are sympathetic to her, you handed a free win away for nothing.

It also means that we could have just had them leave before we hit the button instead of staying to fight. It makes the choice even more obviously in favor of destroy.

Saying it over and over is missing the point. We've reached the end of the useful conversation. Take care.

Right. Like that someone is a racist, pedophile, etc. Except we routinely do not let those rise to this level (and that's before we get to the fact Hasan doesn't have a good reputation and is already thought to be anti Semitic, so someone thinking he also hates black people is maybe a reasonable mistake.) This is a super weak case getting gassed up because people really don't like Jennings.

Because otherwise the left will do everything and the right won't even be able to draft a strongly worded letter. What will we do without the strongly worded letter?

You're one step closer to understanding my point. We have generally let these statements go, or kept super high standards even we when they are objectively untrue. No one thought Romney wished to enslave Black America, but he'd have not won a defamation claim. If we lower the standard for Hasan, then we're reaching the point other obviously untrue/mistaken things are defamation.

No they aren't. Someone has a quality or not. Again, we haven't let these be defamation because they are hard to litigate certain qualities. But, again, you would acknowledge David Duke was racist, Dr. King was not.

Again, things like the "put you in chains" is just as much a false claim as what Jennings had. Someone either wants that or not. But we don't normally let that go because "it's just an opinion" is clearly not true. Biden's statement was a true or false one. It's just as bad as the clip farm, so if we want to start lowering the bar for defamation, so be it.

Eat the other rich.

It is not edgy to hate people it is popular to hate.

Tee hee, in Minecraft and allegedly Iin my opinion are not actually talismans that fend off whether you are stating a fact and alleging if it is true or not.

No. Someone is or is not racist. That is a factual statement. It had been allowed to skate by because we have a high bar for defamation. If we lower the bar, then a lot of these statements are now defamatory.

Loads of those examples I gave are objectively false statements. Someone is or is not a pedophile or racist or wants to put black people back in chains or went to Kenosha to shoot black people. Again: If you want this low a bat, ok. But, be ready for the consequences.

If this is, Rittenhouse could sue everyone who claimed he wanted to shoot black people. It's a known lie. Again, if we want to alter the rules to get Jennings, ok. But a lot of bills ought come due if we lower the bar.

Yeah, if they do that, they should face consequences. That is bad. The only reporting I've seen had been... Well inconclusive at best, but if it is happening, it should stop.

Any of the various X is a pedophile claims, to start. Or X is racist. Or the infamous he wants to put you back in chains statement. Defamation is a high bar for a reason, and I don't see this meeting the bar as currently exists, and should the standard charge, it will be for the worst.

I'd you're unfamiliar with the topic, it's not worth the time. I'm not going to be sea lioned to show you things everyone is aware of. What next, I have to prove he streams on Twitch? If you're not up to speed, stop wasting people's time.

If this can get past that state, loads more people have actionable claims. Think how many people Trump, Obama, Romney, etc. Could sue on this low of a standard.

Are you denying Hasan supports Hamas?

Ok. Let me know when you have time to understand it and we can continue. It's pretty straightforward.
